A Dreamer’s World

For the darling daughter who’s eyes never waver and whose determination to see the world; I pray the light surround you and your dream sustain you, uplift you, and strengthen your resolve.

I was in the middle of inventory sorting when I had heard the news on the radio about London, so I quickly put together this room in hopes of distracting my mind. Because anger and disillusionment isn’t really healthy, and this is a dialysis night.

As a partial empty nester, and mother of three bumbling baby/adult teenagers, I cannot wrap my head around the state of the world and the fact that they will eventually leave and be in it. They were raised to dream big, fly far, experience life to its fullest. And we know how to deal with fear. We face it every time I walk out the door and into this clinic. They face it like champs, strong on the outside, and tender hearted on the inside.

They carry the Light, and this determination to share it and its goodness, well, that gives me the confidence, the assurance, to let them Fly. I put this room together with memorable items from this virtual world we residents call “Second Life™”. And there is Light here.
